Everyone here at Full Sail has been talking about that film since they saw it at the Enzian a few months back. Anyway that trailer looks good and should be a good film. Looks hell of a lot better than both street fighter and dragon ball z.

Yeah I don't have the FPs for it and I am not going to panel line a toy I care less for but I do display the box though.

Have we all forgotten the cinematic classic Fist Of The North Star???? Terrible terrible terrible film.

That's just how it transforms

It's not orange its red and it is the Toynami Crapsterpiece er I mean Masterpiece collection. I have the first released VF-1J somewhere because I still love the box

On TFW2005.com they have the package for Grimlock and I didn't see his crown in there. Hmmmm guess they scrapped that idea. I wonder if my Starscream crown will work?

And he is not an Autobot. I do have him.

Yep exactly how I thought it would be. That is one of the best reviews I have ever read. Too bad the movie will tank so hard they won't be able to correct their mistakes with a sequel or even get to the Z franchise. Another one bites the dust.

As a vet myself I agree with others on the rank system. Global is the General, and all other roles are Colonels, Lower Generals and so forth. They can operate on their own command but must inform Global and his command section of everything. Global commands are law and when is in charge during major operations everyone listens and follows what he says.

It is sad as this has been the best series in a decade. I wonder why they plan on canceling such a great show?

Oddly enough because of my current status I have a lot more available funds than I did years prior. I am in school so I use my loans for my apartment and bills, and I also get the G.I. Bill so I have more available money than before. I am more concerned about getting a job when I get out, but as I am a filmmaker I am sure I can work anywhere just maybe not the job I actually want.

Yeah usually if the shipper send all the necessary info and does the forms properly it shouldn't take no more than a day or two to clear customs. For the past couple of months I have been getting tons of things from Hong Kong and Japan and never really had a hold up at customs....yet. (knocks on wood)

It's not that bad in person though.

Yesasia is a good place. I got mine on ebay. You can buy it anywhere for about 40 bucks. It isn't expensive at all. It is also easy to figure out. I don't know or read any japanese and I figured out the game to the point that I have an overall A on the game right now and working of getting S or SS on everything. Too Bad I can't beat Sad Sniper EX. Michels valk just sucks to bad imho.

They same way that everyone forgot about Jedi in Star Wars in less than 20 years time.

I don't know so far they have done very well with keeping with the spirit of the original toys. the Seekers seem to be the only ones with some divergence to the original design. Those an Ultra Magnus but Fans Project has already rectified that with their classics upgrade

That's understandable. I just feel though that while that may be the case for some most usually want all the bells and wistles because while it may be more expensive now it winds up being cheaper because if you did just have a standalone figure then wanted to upgrade you wind up paying for the upgrades and the shipping on those. Hence why I am not really going to buy any of the upgrade stuff for my Alto DX, but just by Michel's so I can have a figure with a fast pack. But then I am known for eating my own words so I may end up buying those upgrades too.

Man it isn't that big of a deal just don't display it with the boosters and FPs. Yamato has gotten wise and trys to package their figures now with all the bells and whistles, which really helps especially during these times.

Honestly I think the next Masterpiece should be Devastator. Have all original six bots and have them do a perfect transformation without adding parts. That would be cool.

I concur, it's the only one I mess with now. My model just sits in fighter mode on my desk untouched since I got the DX toy.

Man I get more and more excited for this fig. I will soon have an entire shelf on my Detolf dedicated to Mac+ will all the mech that made it memorable in a new amazing scale that doesn't make me so ashamed to show off now unlike the older models. Not that I am ashamed but damn the new figs are amazing.

Jon has stated the he is purposely holding off on the Mandarin. He wants him to be a shadowy figure within the background of the story and then use IM 3 for Mandarin. You can tell by the allusion to him within the 10 Rings terrorist organization in the first film. After seeing how well the first film turned out I am sure they know what they are doing. The Dark Knight had 3 villians, 1 main, 2 side ones and was perfectly fine. They never said in the new Iron Man film how much screen time or story is actually going to be sent on each one. From what I can tell Mickey Rouke will be the head bad guy and use Black Widow to infiltrate Stark Industries since both characters are Russian. It makes the most sense to me anyway.

I got my Toynami Cyclone, man is this an amazing piece. This is without a doubt one of my favorite transforming mech toys. I will also probably get the Lancer and that's it. i do suggest if you can afford it pick one up.

I too am keeping mine as well as displaying them. I am only getting 1/60s in colors and versions I don't have except for Hikaru's VF-1J so that I can have a complete Vermillion Squadron in one scale. Other than that, if I have it in 1/48s I am not getting a 1/60. Feels too much like double dipping.

Mine is pretty tight all around luckily no floppiness
